It seems the bright lights are going to set Aer Lingus on fire, as the airline is planning to launch a winter seasonal service to Las Vegas. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The Irish flag carrier will start the service on Friday 25th October 2024, just in time for the midterm break, operating through to 29th April 2025, covering the East Holiday perfect to get a little bit of desert sun or adjust your eyes to the flashing slot machines in the hotels. <\/p>\n
The planned operation is <\/p>\n
Aer Lingus will deploy an Airbus A330 on the route, typically with 30 business class seats and over 275 economy class seats (with the airline operating three different seating variants). <\/p>\n
Lead-in prices start from 499 return including taxes and charges, with tickets on sale now from Aer Linguss site, as well as the usual distribution channels. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Lynne Embleton, Aer Lingus Chief Executive Officer said: <\/p>\n
Aer Lingus is bringing this iconic destination to Irish customers seeking an escape to the winter sun. <\/p>\n
In addition to the warm climate, Las Vegas is renowned for being one of the greatest entertainment capitals in the world, famous for its shows, concerts, sports events and natural wonders. It is a long-held ambition of ours to fly to Las Vegas. The launch of this new Aer Lingus route is a significant moment for us and our customers. <\/p>\n
Steve Hill, president and CEO of the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority added: <\/p>\n
On behalf of all of Las Vegas, we couldnt be more thrilled to welcome Aer Lingus to Las Vegas for the very first time, <\/p>\n
In 2023, our city welcomed more than 52,000 visitors from Ireland, and this direct, nonstop service from Dublin will undoubtedly be motivation for Irish travelers and visitors throughout Europe to discover everything Las Vegas has to offer. We congratulate Aer Lingus on this expansion and look forward to a very successful partnership. <\/p>\n
Its not surprising Aer Lingus is launching another transatlantic route with those routes being the core of the airlines long haul business. <\/p>\n
Perhaps the only thing that is surprising is that it has taken so long for Aer Lingus to consider the route launch. With three flights a week for an extended winter season, it provides holiday lift capacity as well as for those who are connecting at Dublin Airport (and thus provides an easy connection, along with pre-clearance in the USA). <\/p>\n
It should provide a useful link for those who wish to explore some of the wonders of the region as well as beyond the hotels on the strip. <\/p>\n
